A dedicated department
To retrofit, or not to retrofit. That's the question. If existing seals need spare parts, ordering a whole new seal might be a good solution. Through a separate department of our company, solely dedicated to retrofitting, we guarantee fast delivery, compatibility and high quality when a seal needs replacement. Using a separate ordering process and warehouse, IHC Lagersmit engineers develop tailor-made solutions based on existing drawings.
